One has to draw a clear distinction between lease agreements for residential properties and those that are for commercial properties

We received the following in an email this last week.

“I signed a 2-year lease agreement with my landlord on the 27th February 2018 and the lease agreement came into effect on the 1st March this year. I simply cannot afford the rent and I wrote to my landlord on the 29th June cancelling the lease and requesting repayment of my security deposit of R 28000.00. He has refused to refund me. What can I do?”
